Union of Poles of Romania

[1] Xenia Grabska-Stoica was the first president of the union, and Andrei Răuță and Mihai Rainer were the deputy-presidents; Antoni Rojowski was the first chairman.

[2] The party contested the May 1990 general elections, and despite receiving only 2,372 votes (0.02%),[3] it won a single seat in the Chamber of Deputies (taken by Antoni Linzmeier) under the electoral law that allows for political parties representing ethnic minority groups to be exempt from the electoral threshold.

At the party congress held in Suceava on 13 and 14 April 1991, Rojowski was re-elected president, serving until 1994.

The organisation has 15 local associations, in Bucharest, Constanța, Craiova, Iași, Suceava, Siret, Rădăuți, Vicșani, Solonețu Nou, Cacica, Pleșa [ro], Poiana Micului, Păltinoasa, Gura Humorului, and Moara.

The headquarters of the Union leadership is located in the Polish House in Suceava, built between 1903 and 1907 and regained by the community in 1996.
